Get property

This example shows you how to use method GetProperty to retrieve value of existing property. In this example you can see that we use method GetProperty to retrieve file size and also to retrieve one user defined property.

C# example

using System;
using System.Net;
using Independentsoft.Webdav;

namespace Sample
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            NetworkCredential credential = new NetworkCredential("username", "password");
            WebdavSession session = new WebdavSession(credential);
            Resource resource = new Resource(session);

            Property sizeProperty = resource.GetProperty("http://myserver/dav/file1.dat", DavProperty.GetContentLength);
            Console.WriteLine("File size = " + sizeProperty.Value);

            PropertyName myPropertyName = new PropertyName("myproperty", "independentsoft:");
            Property myProperty = resource.GetProperty("http://myserver/dav/file1.dat", myPropertyName);
            Console.WriteLine("My property = " + myProperty.Value);

            //Press ENTER to exit
            Console.Read();
        }
    }
}

            Dim session As WebdavSession = New WebdavSession(credential)
            Dim resource As Resource = New Resource(session)

            Dim sizeProperty As Independentsoft.Webdav.Property = resource.GetProperty("http://myserver/dav/file1.dat", DavProperty.GetContentLength)
            Console.WriteLine("File size = " & sizeProperty.Value)

            Dim myPropertyName As PropertyName = New PropertyName("myproperty", "independentsoft:")
            Dim myProperty As Independentsoft.Webdav.Property = resource.GetProperty("http://myserver/dav/file1.dat", myPropertyName)
